Roadworks in Haarlem: keep this in mind this week (September 14 - September 21)

Various streets in Haarlem are experiencing traffic disruptions and closures between September 14 and September 21 due to ongoing construction and maintenance. Motorists should anticipate speed reductions on major roads and temporary access restrictions in residential areas during this period.

Multiple roadworks and construction projects are scheduled in Haarlem from September 14 to September 21, affecting traffic flow across various city streets. Notable long-term closures include the Van Marumstraat, which is closed in both directions until late 2026, and the Spaarndamseweg, which remains restricted in one direction due to ongoing building activities until 2028. Speed limits of 30 kilometers per hour have been implemented on the Parklaan and the Gedempte Oude Gracht to accommodate maintenance, with the latter occurring primarily overnight.

Additional short-term disruptions are expected throughout the week. The Leliestraat is subject to phased closures until September 25, while the Spaarnwouderstraat will be blocked on September 21 between 11:00 and 16:00 due to roofing work involving a hydraulic platform. Furthermore, the Twaalf Apostelenstraat and Luitestraat may experience restricted access or temporary blockages on September 21 between 7:00 and 14:00 due to scheduled residential moves. Commuters are advised to plan their routes accordingly to account for these ongoing infrastructure improvements.
